I have the variable:
simbolo db "0 $"
and I also have the following function:
read_keyboard:
mov ah, 1
int 21h
ret
What is a simple interrupt that reads from the screen, and saves what was read in AH .
My problem is: how do I load the content of AH (read from the keyboard) into my symbol ?
I've already tried:
mov simbolo, [AH]
and also
lea simbolo, AH
And I did not succeed.
The function int 21,1 returns the character read in register AL (not AH ).
To load the value of the AL register into the simbolo memory location, use the command:
mov [simbolo],al
The bracket indicates that simbolo is a memory location.
The source (register al ) is to the right of the comma, and the destination ( simbolo ) on the left, according to syntax Intel .
NOTE: The syntax of this command may change depending on the assembler you are using.
